Email Communications and Kit

Get Enlightenment uses Kit to manage email subscriptions, including the Free Daily Email.

When you subscribe, Kit may process information such as your:

  • Email address
  • Name, if provided
  • Subscription status
  • Date of subscription
  • Forms or links you interact with

You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in an email.

Unsubscribing stops future subscription emails, although limited records may be retained where necessary for legal, compliance, suppression-list, or record-keeping purposes.

We use this information primarily to:

  • Respond to your message
  • Provide requested information or assistance
  • Maintain appropriate business or correspondence records
  • Prevent spam or abuse

Please do not submit sensitive personal information through a general contact form unless it is necessary.

User Accounts

If account functionality is enabled and you create an account, the website may store information associated with that account, such as:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Username
  • Account credentials in protected form
  • Account preferences
  • Course enrollment or progress information
  • Order history where applicable

Account information is used to authenticate users and provide access to website, course, and purchasing functions.

Passwords are not intended to be stored in plain text by WordPress.

Courses and LearnPress

Get Enlightenment uses LearnPress to provide course-related functionality.

When you enroll in or participate in a course, information may be associated with your account, including:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Billing address
  • Shipping address, where applicable
  • Telephone number, where provided
  • Products purchased

WooCommerce provides website owners with privacy and retention controls for customer accounts and order data.

We may retain transaction records where reasonably necessary for order administration, accounting, taxation, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or other legal requirements.

Payment Processing

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers.

When a payment provider is used, certain transaction and customer information may be transmitted to that provider as necessary to process the payment, prevent fraud, handle refunds, or provide related financial services.

Get Enlightenment does not intend to directly store complete payment-card numbers when payment information is processed by an external payment provider.

The privacy practices of a payment provider are governed by that provider’s own privacy policy.

The specific payment provider or providers used by Get Enlightenment may change as the store is configured.

Comments

If comments are enabled on articles or other content, information entered into the comment form may be collected along with technical information such as the visitor’s IP address and browser information for purposes such as displaying the comment and detecting spam.

Information voluntarily posted in a public comment may be visible to other visitors. You should avoid including private or sensitive personal information in public comments.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Get Enlightenment may use cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies are small files stored on a visitor’s device that can help websites remember information or provide certain functions.

Cookies used by this website may include:

Strictly necessary cookies
These may be required for fundamental website functions such as account login, shopping-cart functionality, security, or session management.

Functional cookies
These may remember choices or provide enhanced website functionality.

Analytics or performance cookies
If analytics services are enabled, these may help measure website traffic and understand how visitors use the site.

Third-party or embedded-content cookies
External services, such as embedded videos or other third-party features, may set or access cookies according to their own policies.

Where applicable law requires consent before non-essential cookies are used, Get Enlightenment intends to obtain appropriate consent before using those cookies.

Embedded Content and YouTube

Pages on this website may contain embedded or linked content from third-party websites, including YouTube.

Embedded content may behave similarly to content viewed directly on the third-party website. The provider may collect information about your interaction with that content and may use cookies or similar technologies.

Get Enlightenment does not control the privacy practices of these external services.

You should review the privacy policies of third-party services for additional information about their practices.

External Links

The website may contain links to websites operated by other organizations.

Once you leave Get Enlightenment, the collection and use of information by another website is governed by that website’s own privacy policy and practices.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.

Service Providers

Get Enlightenment may use third-party service providers to operate portions of the website and its services.

Depending on the services enabled, these providers may include companies involved in:

  • Website hosting
  • Email delivery
  • E-commerce
  • Payment processing
  • Course delivery
  • Spam prevention
  • Website security
  • Embedded media
  • Analytics
  • Technical support

These providers may receive information only to the extent reasonably necessary to provide their services or fulfill applicable legal obligations.

How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information simply for monetary payment.

Personal information may be shared when reasonably necessary:

  • With service providers that help operate the website
  • To process purchases or payments
  • To provide courses or requested services
  • With your consent
  • To comply with a law, legal process, court order, or regulatory obligation
  • To investigate fraud, abuse, security threats, or violations of applicable agreements
  • To protect the rights, safety, and property of Get Enlightenment, its users, or others
  • In connection with a legitimate business transfer, reorganization, or similar transaction where legally permitted

Legal Bases for Processing

Where laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation require a legal basis for processing personal information, processing may be based on one or more of the following:

Consent — when you have agreed to a particular use, such as subscribing to certain email communications.

Contract — when processing is necessary to provide a product, course, purchase, or service you requested.

Legitimate interests — when processing is reasonably necessary for operating, improving, securing, or administering the website and those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Legal obligations — when information must be processed or retained to comply with applicable law.

You may withdraw consent where consent is the legal basis for processing. Withdrawal does not make earlier lawful processing unlawful.

International Data Processing

Get Enlightenment and its service providers may process or store information in countries different from the country where you live.

Some service providers may use safeguards intended to support lawful international transfers of personal information. For example, Kit states that its Data Processing Addendum incorporates mechanisms for certain international data transfers.

Privacy protections and legal requirements may differ among countries.

Data Retention

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or as required by applicable law.

Different categories of information may be retained for different periods.

For example:

  • Email subscriber information may be retained while a subscription remains active and for an appropriate period afterward for record-keeping or compliance.
  • Contact-form correspondence may be retained as reasonably necessary to respond to requests and maintain records.
  • Account and course information may be retained while an account remains active and afterward where reasonably necessary.
  • Purchase and order information may be retained as necessary for accounting, taxation, warranties, fraud prevention, disputes, and other legal obligations.

WordPress and WooCommerce provide administrative tools that can assist with personal-data access, deletion, and retention workflows.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

These rights may include the right to:

  • Request access to personal information held about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of personal information
  • Request restriction of certain processing
  • Object to certain processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
  • Request a portable copy of certain information
  • Opt out of certain marketing communications
  • Make a complaint to an appropriate data-protection authority

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to exceptions under applicable law.

WordPress includes tools that allow website administrators to export or erase personal data in response to appropriate requests.

California Privacy Rights

Residents of California may have additional rights under applicable California privacy laws, depending on whether those laws apply to Get Enlightenment.

Applicable rights may include rights relating to access, correction, deletion, and certain disclosures concerning personal information.

If a particular California privacy law does not apply to Get Enlightenment because of statutory thresholds or other requirements, this section should not be interpreted as creating rights beyond those provided by law.

European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland

Visitors located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland may have additional rights under applicable data-protection law.

Where applicable, these may include rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to, or obtain certain personal information, as well as the right to withdraw consent and lodge a complaint with an appropriate supervisory authority.

Children’s Privacy

Get Enlightenment is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required for independent consent under applicable law.

If we learn that personal information has been collected from a child in circumstances where appropriate parental or guardian consent was required and was not obtained, we may take reasonable steps to delete that information.

If you believe a child has provided personal information improperly, please contact us.

Security

Get Enlightenment uses reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect personal information.

However, no website, online transmission, server, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Visitors provide information through the Internet at their own risk.

Data Breaches

If a security incident involving personal information occurs, Get Enlightenment will take reasonable steps to investigate and respond to the incident and will provide notifications where required by applicable law.

Automated Decision-Making

Get Enlightenment does not currently intend to use personal information to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects solely through automated processing.

If this changes, this Privacy Policy may be updated.

Do Not Track and Browser Controls

Some browsers provide privacy controls, including cookie restrictions or “Do Not Track” signals.

Website functionality and third-party services may respond differently to these settings. Visitors may also control or delete cookies through their browser settings, although disabling necessary cookies may affect website functionality.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in:

  • Website functionality
  • Services and plugins
  • Business practices
  • Legal requirements
  • Third-party providers

The Last updated date at the beginning of this policy will indicate when the policy was most recently revised.

Material changes may also be communicated by other reasonable means when appropriate.
